Freehand

I haven’t tried free hand painting on nails with acrylic paints before so this was a fun new experience and is definitely something I will be doing again. I’m so pleased with these as a first attempt at this kind of work.

There is a lady on one of the Facebook nail groups I frequent who regularly posts up pictures of her amazing freehand paintwork and she inspired me to try out the technique. She has a YouTube channel called “Starry Nail” which is really worth checking out and on there you can find the tutorial for the original version of this fireworks design (in which she uses glowing paint!) along with dozens and dozens of other amazing designs. It will be a long time of practicing before I am anywhere near as brilliant as she is, her designs are just so intricate. Practice makes perfect as they say!
